Why are the lengths of the Terms of Office important in balancing the need for democracy?

Terms of office prevent someone from becoming king when they are president. Eight years for a president in office is enough time to get things done. The House term of two years allows for some to get experience, but with no term limits they can run again. The 6 year term in the Senate allows for people to have the experience of government without term limits.
